The European Voyages of Exploration: The
Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries.
During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries two
nations, Portugal and Spain, pioneered the European
discovery of sea routes that were the first channels of
interaction between all of the world's continents, thus
beginning the process of globalisation in which we all
live today. This tutorial introduces the student to these
two pioneering nations, their motivations, their actions,
and the inevitable consequences of their colonisation.
This tutorial also examines the geographical,
technological, economic, political, and cultural patterns
of that era.

Who Goes There: European Exploration of the
New World.
Created by Bartlett Elementary School, this site
introduces you to some of the great explorers that filled
in the map with lands that were previously unknown to
Europeans. You will learn why they sailed, where they
sailed, what they found, and how they treated each other
and the people that they met.
